"We spent most of a wonderful day on the full Loch cruise on the 28th of September. It was simply brilliant! The Captain knew just where the wildlife was and could handle his boat beautifully. On the way to Acharacle from Glenfinnan we were lucky enough to be treated to a close up, wonderful display by a pair of White Tailed Eagles. Then on the way back to Glenfinnan we saw deer and Golden Eagles!"
